Chapter 278 - The Ark Of Agile Quadruplet (1/2)

Mavislin s.u.c.k.e.d in a sharp breath of air, carefully accessing the situation. Any moment from now, her opponent would strike. Since the girls at the back alley had been taken to a safer place by Gab and Ysabeau.

”You think that these are the right girls?” asked Gab, placing a blanket of a girl.​​

”Yes, I'm sure. Her statement is never wrong,” said Ysabeau, checking up on the girls' pulses.

Ysabeau took out a shard of a crystal. It was small, but it had a rainbow glow.

”This is our main communication within the Arks. Only the Founders are gifted these. Basically, these are called Crystal Prisms. Since it converts information into light when aimed at a specific angle, the information would travel within the speed of light,” explained Ysabeau, wiggling the piece between her fingers.

”But what if the recipient is in a dark area, where light can't shine through?” asked Gab, lifting another girl.

”I didn't say anything about using natural light. We use our Elemental Power to convert into beams of light. Each Crystal's hue represents the wielder's Elemental Aura. Mine is rainbow since I can use the most basic Elements. Mav's light is golden while Z's would be blue.”

”Hmm... Such a neat device... Mind if I take a look at it?” asked a voice, appearing behind Ysabeau.

The boy was hanging upside down, with his feet hooking onto a clothesline. He then tried to grab Ysabeau.

”Duck!” shouted Gab, instantly dropping down to hug Ysabeau's legs.

He narrowly escaped with Ysabeau, with both lying on the ground.

”Looks like we've got company...” growled Ysabeau, standing up.

”No, your little friends are joined by my sibling too!” exclaimed the perpetrator.

The boy grinned playfully as his whole body rotated a full circle before landing right behind Ysabeau. If she wasn't human, she wouldn't have caught that punch. He quickly recovered and delivered a powerful kick, knocking Ysabeau off-balance.

She then grabbed the boy's leg brought it down with her, but the boy was extremely agile. He managed to get out of her grip by launching himself up into the air, using Ysabeau's shoulder as a stepping stone. He ended in mid-air, hanging upside down once again.
